- Is the Orient Bambino AC00009W a good first automatic watch?
- Yes. It is a common entry point into mechanical watches: a real in-house automatic movement, a dressy dial and simple upkeep. It has no hacking seconds and modest water resistance, so treat it as a desk-to-dinner watch.
- Can I swim or shower with it?
- No. It is rated 3 ATM (30 m), which covers splashes and hand washing only. Take it off for swimming, showering and dishes.
- What is the case size?
- The case is about 40.5 mm across, which suits most wrists from about 6.5 inches up. The thin bezel and domed crystal make it wear slightly larger than the number suggests.
- Does it have a sapphire crystal?
- No, it uses mineral glass. It resists knocks but scratches more easily than sapphire, so avoid wearing it against rough surfaces.
- How long does it run without wearing?
- The power reserve is about 40 hours. If you leave it off for a weekend it may stop, so reset the time and date before wearing it again.
- What is in the box?
- The watch on its brown leather strap, with the buckle closure. It comes in an Orient box; a manual and warranty card are usually included.
